Move over miniskirts, there’s a new shorty in town. We’re not just talking daisy dukes, either, as micro mini shorts were shown in knits, leather and sequins this season.

’70s-inspired pieces can officially be considered staples. The tried and true trend will transition easily from Fall to Spring so load up on boxy blazers and wide-leg pants that will cary you through the year.

OTT shapes and volume characterize the 17th century trend. The Mary Antoinette-esque dresses and hoops skirts have us excited for the elaborate looks that will surely make an appearance on the red carpet circuit.
